STP 99 | How to Stop Sabotaging Your Success: What Not to Do in 2025

Hi friends,

This episode gets a little personal. I’m sharing the habits I’m leaving behind in 2025 to create a more intentional, fulfilling year. These aren’t just resolutions—they’re practical shifts I’ve been working on to stop sabotaging my own success. If you’ve ever felt stuck or overwhelmed, I think you’ll find some inspiration here.

Here’s what I cover:

• Why I’m replacing social media scrolling with something meaningful. (Spoiler: it’s about valuing my time and feeding my mind!)


• The game-changing habit of planning for success before going to bed.


• How focusing on progress, not deficits, has helped me overcome imposter syndrome.


• A bonus tip: why I’m refusing to take my days for granted and how capturing meaningful stories has made every day feel richer.

As I said in the episode: “I’m not going to use social media to cure boredom.” That small change has opened the door to more productive and impactful habits—and it can for you, too.

This episode is about more than just tips; it’s about getting honest with ourselves and creating space for the life we really want. I’d love for you to listen and think about what you’ll stop doing in 2025 to make room for growth. Let’s make this year the one where we stop holding ourselves back.

Listen now and join me in putting our mission in motion for 2025.
